Every purchase I\'ve made on zappo\'s has been first class service. My orders ALWAYS arrive within a few days (with the exception of Christmas time, may take a few more days, which is understandable) If any item isn\'t what I expected which again is rare, returning items is very easy with with zappos. I\'ve told all of my friends about this site and many have used it and loved it as much as myself.

I love Zappos!!!!! This is the most comfortable shoe. Simple design, comfortable, and true to size. Having a wide foot it is difficult to find sandals that are a good fit.This is a great walking shoe for the summer. I wear this sandal almost every day.

These are very comfortable sandals which is why I have purchased two pairs of them. I have walked miles in them with no issues and a great deal of comfort. This said, the ankle strap broke and I have heard it is a common problem for these sandals. They are reasonably priced to this helps -- but just know they are not perfectly constructed.

These are really comfortable and cute. I got the red cinnamon color. They are so padded, it feels like you are walking on pillows. My only complaint is that the leather is a bit cheap and scratches really easily.

This is second pair I bought because they are so comfortable to walk in. First pair were red and match my outfits well.

Cute, comfortable, but noisy! They let out an audible whoosh with every step. So annoying! My last pair of Sunjuns a few years ago did the same thing, but I thought they would have fixed this by now. Get on it, Bass! Fine if you're outside in a noisy environment, but walking into church? Deadly!

So comfy! True to size. However, it does make a hissing noise when you walk. I think it's the air trapped between the sole and the bottom of the shoe. They are so comfortable but the hissing can be a little annoying and embarrassing. I'm on a mission to fix that part but in the mean time they look cute and keep my feet comfy walking all over NYC.

These are really comfortable and true to size. They also keep my pinky toe inside the strap where it belongs. However, the way the buckle is placed on the top strap towards the toes, it makes the bottom strap come out at an odd angle. It's not really disturbing and it looks like some new, different style, but I'm sure this is not what Bass intended.

These shoes are sooooo comfortable it feels like you are walking on clouds. But the shoes make a squish sound and it can be very annoying. I sent the first pair back, directly to bass and while the second pair is a bit quieter, sometimes I still hear the noise when I step. Kind of worth it for the comfort though.

These sandals are very nice looking, well-priced, and comfortable -- with one caveat. They lack any arch support, which I remedied by making my own modest arch support from high heel front foot pads, trimmed to a smaller size. That did the trick. I've worn them several times already, and unlike many sandals these days, they do not rub anywhere or have any uncomfortable stitching.

I purchased this shoe in Black. As the previous reviews stated, I expected some of the dye to rub off and it did but after about the 3rd wear, it didn't happen again. I also had the swishing sound of the padding. It's noticeable in a quiet area but the comfort is worth your shoes "talking back" to you. I'm overall pleased with my purchase - the price was right, it fit my larger size and they are cute/comfy.

I have very wide feet and these fit perfectly, but I've only worn them approximately 7 times and this morning while walking into work the outside strap broke. I love these shoes so they are being replaced! Zappos.com rocks with their customer service.

Very comfortable right out of the box, no breaking in required. They do make an air swish noise when I walk, but I'm hoping that goes away with time. I like them because they remind me of sandals I wore as a little girl. So cute!

These are okay looking but the forefoot isn't very wide for a supposed EE width. They made my feet look like they were bulging out between the front and rear strap. They also have no arch support, but I guess that's to be expected. It's too bad because they are a cute plain sandal that would be reasonably comfortable for walking if they fit right. They are light and small, so they would be very packable, too. The straps are just unlined leather, so they can be flattened down to the thickness of the sole.
Brands I'd also recommend: Walking Cradles Sky are similar but more comfortable!

Excellent cushion comfort on these sandals. I wear my shoes hard, so I hope the padded soles last. These are to tide me over until I can get my Birkenstocks re-soled, but I want them to be comfortable and I'm pretty picky about my sandal look (they need to be utilitarian and boring).

I have a long, narrow foot. Had to add a hole to the straps, but thrilled that the option was available. There are very limited styles available for 11AAAA and most are clunky. This looks light. Strangely, the whoosh sound is only from the left.

I have a very long and narrow foot size 10 1/2 probably AAA or narrower so I am very selective. I ordered 10 N after reading reviews. This shoe fits, but the leather stretched and I had to take it to have another hole punched in the buckle adjustment. It is not the most stylish shoe, but it works for skinny-footed me right now and looks decent with capris.

These are great knock-around sandals. They are so inexpensive, that I planned on making them gold, but the tan is surprisingly fashionable. I've walked comfortably around NYC and on gravel roads in these sandals. As others have mentioned, they do make an annoying whoosh sound when you walk, but I don't hear it when I am outside. Also, the ankle strap does not seem to size up, and quality control is lacking. Over the course of several pairs I ordered to find the right width/size, the fittings were different and the top buckle was often off-center. Eventually, I did find a great pair.

The shoes are very comfortable and stylish to wear to work or out for other events. I love them. Also, loved how fast they came from Zappos, with no shipping fee.
